Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    I have to admire our ancestors for being able to give wines such charming names, such as Huadiao, Bamboo Leaf Green, Tusu, and Heshang. Every name is antique. Just listening to the name of the wine is like an ink landscape in front of people's eyes.  It unfolds slowly, making people think about it.  What kind of wine is Huadiao?  Let¡¯s put it this way, the most famous Huadiao is Shaoxing Huadiao. Where is Shaoxing, the hometown of rice wine? So Huadiao, in fact, is a kind of rice wine.  Eating crabs with Huadiao, that is, eating crabs with rice wine. Crabs are cold in nature and rice wine is warm in nature. Combining the two is really a good thing.  Soon, the two jars of rice wine Suman ordered were brought up. Tianxianglou was really particular about this. The black wine jars with flower carvings looked antique and had the flavor of an ancient tavern.  Suman touched the relief on the wine jar and explained with a smile: "This Huadiao wine is actually a kind of yellow wine. However, the name of Huadiao is of course much better than yellow wine. This is also because in ancient times, yellow wine was packaged.  When giving it away, in order to avoid being shabby, the jars containing the wine are often carved with flowers, birds, insects and fish, so the rice wine is called Huadiao." As she spoke, she held the wine jar with one hand and the black one with the other.  The wine jar slowly rotated, so that everyone could clearly see the relief on the wine jar. This wine jar was really exquisite, with a phoenix fluttering about to fly on one side, and a five-clawed golden dragon on the other side.  The tails of the two are intertwined, and the dragon's mouth and phoenix's head gather at the mouth of the altar, which is very beautiful.  Little Andrew was interested in going over to the wine jar, rubbing the dragon and phoenix reliefs on it, and praised repeatedly: "8, you are really amazing. If you hadn't told me, I would never have known that this wine container has anything to do with the name of the wine.  "Relationship" Ptolemy came over with interest and studied it head-to-head with him.  Seeing their interest, Su Man couldn't help but get excited, and said a few more words: "This Huadiao wine had another name in ancient times, called Zhuangyuanhong or Nuerhong. Zhuangyuanhong was prepared for students at home, starting from the Enlightenment  , he took it out and drank it after he was named on the gold list." Suman paused and said with a smile: "It's more interesting if your daughter is red. When someone gives birth to a daughter, they bury a jar under the tree and wait for the daughter to get married.  Dig it out and drink it¡ª¡ª" The young people's eyes lit up after hearing this. They didn't expect that there were so many stories in this jar of wine.  Su Man smiled sweetly: "Actually, what kind of famous wine doesn't have a story? For example, rum. Wasn't it a famous pirate wine in the past?" Little Andrew held the wine jar and eagerly opened the mud seal on it.  I'm going to have a taste of this Huadiao.  Suman frowned and stopped, "Wait a minute." She turned back to look at the waiter who was looking at him intently, and asked, "Do you have a hot wine vessel in your store? Why don't you take it out?" The young waiter was startled and hurriedly asked.  Apologizing: "Sorry, I'll go get it right away." He politely left the box and trotted into the kitchen. When he saw A Liu holding up the iron pot and loading the dishes, he immediately shouted: "A Liu  Brother Liu's guests in the courtyard requested to be served warm wine vessels. The man named A Liu looked to be in his early twenties, with broad shoulders and a thin waist. His snow-white sleeves were slightly rolled up, revealing his strong forearms. Following his movements,  , the muscles on it were jumping and full of energy. He raised his eyes calmly, a flash of surprise flashed on his face. He picked up the menu next to him and took another look at the fried eel in sauce, Dongpo pork, and Longjing shrimp.  The menu was familiar, and finally he asked for crab rice with rice. Even if he is not an old eater, he is just twenty-four years old, but he has been working as an apprentice in Tianxianglou for ten years.  He started, step by step, and now he can handle a table alone. Even Master Sun patted him on the shoulder and said, "A Liu, I have taught you all these skills. You can do it this time."  You must live up to your expectations." Ah Liu pursed his lips. There are rich and poor everywhere. In this prosperous land, Hong Kong is even more divided between rich and poor. He lost his father when he was young, and his mother became ill from overwork and was bedridden.  , his family could not even afford medical expenses, so he had to drop out of school. Normally, a young man like him who had not even graduated from middle school could only work as a low-level laborer in a factory or construction site, just like his parents.  , worked hard from morning to night, and even after saving money for three lifetimes, he still couldn¡¯t buy a house in the city. A Liu was unwilling to live like this for the rest of his life, so he found this house in Tianxiang Building after relying on his old neighbor for decades.  Fortunately, he was born tall and taciturn. If he said he was eighteen years old, some people would believe him. After working hard for ten years, he finally saw the light of day. Yesterday he went to attend the old class reunion.  Among the faces that had gradually become blurred, they all became high-spirited, dressed in trendy fashion, and drove fashionable cars. Only he, wearing a simple white shirt and ordinary jeans, came on a public bus.  Students exchange business cards with each otherAt that time, he could only wave his hand, what kind of business card could a hotel kitchen worker have?  In my heart, I still feel a little disappointed. Ah Liu is looking forward to the grand event in the near future. Master Sun said that it is a place where carp can cross the dragon gate.  As long as he performs well, he can work as a chef in any restaurant after he comes back.  Ah Liu's heart was filled with heat, and all his thoughts were devoted to it.  It was just what he was in his heart, and his face was still calm, otherwise more than a dozen apprentices who had spent ten years would not only have him for ten years.  If you want to ask who Ah Liu is most grateful for in the world, it is naturally Master Sun who introduced him to the industry and taught him every signature dish step by step.  However, there was one thing that Master Sun didn't like about him.  In A Liu¡¯s view, when a customer enters a restaurant, he is a customer. No matter high or low, young or old, when a customer orders a dish, he must serve the customer wholeheartedly.  But Master Sun didn¡¯t think so. Master Sun emphasized to him again and again that there were two private rooms upstairs, and those who could enter those two private rooms were either rich or noble and must be entertained well.  In the past, for the guests in these two private rooms, Master Sun would cook the food himself without relying on other people's hands.  ¡°It¡¯s just that since last year during the Chinese New Year, Master Sun fell ill, and after he stepped in once, Master Sun was very relieved of him, and occasionally let him do the work.  A Liu was disapproving in his heart. He cooked every dish on the surface, but secretly he made a mistake and told the waiters in the private room that when recommending dishes to guests, they should only recommend the most expensive ones. Anyway, those who can get into these two private rooms  The guests are all extremely rich hosts, who are stupid and have a lot of money.  Ah Liu thought that today¡¯s guests would do the same, so he even took out the shark fins and soaked them in advance.  To be honest, shark fin in Hong Kong is very expensive and the quality is average. Many people go to hotels to eat shark fin just to show off their status. In fact, the taste is not outstanding.  ¡° Anyway, it¡¯s usually a cup shared by several people, and only two or three mouthfuls per person are gone, so there¡¯s no way to tell whether it¡¯s good or bad.  After ordering crabs and Huadiao, the Huadiao was still warm, but he was a good eater. A Liu raised his eyebrows.  The young waiter picked up the vessel to warm the wine. He thought of something and called out again: "Brother A Liu, you would never expect that the person ordering food is actually a young girl." A Liu was startled and then asked with a smile.  : "Oh? How young are you? Are you attracted to it?" Waiter Axiu's eyes widened: "Oh, he looks less than twenty. And you don't know, everyone in Man Tingfang's private room today is a  The tallest handsome guy, everyone is 1.9 meters tall - "A Xiu knew that A Liu was only 1.78 meters tall. Although he was not short, compared with the waiters like them, he was much shorter.  He was deliberately mentioned to stimulate him.  Ah Liu couldn't help teasing him, and interrupted with a smile: "Are they all handsome guys? Aren't they all young masters?" In Hong Kong, young masters are often metaphorically referred to as some handsome men who are engaged in escort activities, also called male public relations.  Xiu immediately cried out in aggrievedness: "How is it possible that those people are blond, blue-eyed, and have brown skin? They all come from different countries." Ah Liu deliberately clicked his tongue in surprise: "Ah, when did such a high-end restaurant open in Kowloon?  Club." He looked Axiu up and down, and suggested with a smile: "Are they short of handsome Asian men? I think you are tall enough, why not give it a try?" Axiu's two nostrils almost spit out fire: "Ah  Brother Liu, I saw Brother Shanshui sitting at the banquet and laughing with him all the time." Ah Liu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but piece together Axiu's words in his mind: Brother Shanshui was personally accompanying him, and there were a bunch of handsome exotic guys from all over the world.  But he allowed a girl who was less than twenty years old to order food¡ª¡ª This picture was really weird no matter how you looked at it. For the first time, A Liu became curious about the guests in the box and wanted to take a look at this person.  I will point out what a customer who eats crab and flower carvings looks like.  A-Xiu and A-Liu exchanged some words and realized that they had been delayed for a long time. They held the vessel of warm wine and ran upstairs.  Pushing open the door of the box, in an instant, countless sharp eyes looked at him, as if sharp knives were piercing his face. Axiu froze. He did not expect that the men who were chatting and laughing with the young girl just now had serious faces.  It was so terrifying that he seemed to have stepped into a beast's cage, and wild beasts roared towards him.  Suman reluctantly took the wine-warming vessel. I don¡¯t know why this little brother has gone. A room full of hungry wolves have been waiting for a long time. How can their eyes not be green? This wine-warming vessel follows the consistent style of Tianxianglou.  It's antique, with a large blue and white porcelain basin outside, half a basin of clear water inside, and two fresh pink bowl lotus floating on the clear water. Suman secretly admired it, I'm afraid it's the kind of treatment only VIPR spoon private rooms have. Sitting in the middle of the porcelain basin  A wine bottle with a long and slender mouth, a big belly and a small mouth, about ten centimeters.It was so high that when I opened it suddenly, I thought it was the pure vase in the hand of Guanyin Bodhisattva.
